Educator: How good, you all smiled. I would like to invite you to devote your entire day to good deeds. First, let's conduct such a lesson in our group. Child: In a group on a winter day in the morning, there was a lesson in kindness. Everyone studied diligently, And today among themselves, They didn’t share candy, But they shared kindness. All grievances were forgotten, Peace was concluded with the whole group. And they decided - from now on, there will be no quarrels. So as not to isolate ourselves, Let's all stick together, Let's keep up as a group, Let's all help each other. During the lesson of kindness, There was so much warmth, That from this warmth, All the flowers bloomed! (N. Anishina) Educator: What are good deeds? Answers.

Educator: What is needed for people to become kinder, for kindness to be everywhere? How should you start your day? Answers: with kind words and good deeds. Educator: What kind and polite words do you know? Answers.

Educator: Well done, you remembered the words, but you already say them a hundred times a day. I invite you to go out onto the mat, let’s all stand in a circle and play the game “Proverbs about Kindness.” I pass the bunny toy, and everyone takes turns saying the proverbs and passing the toy to each other.

Educator: Let's remember the rules of kindness? Answers.

Educator: Our next task is the most difficult, let's distract ourselves a little and do some gymnastics. I walk and you walk - one, two, three (step in place) I sing and you sing - one, two, three (conducting with our hands) We walk and sing - one, two, three (we walk in a circle in one direction ) We live very friendly - one, two, three (we walk in a circle in the other direction) We don’t live too hard, and we are friends with everyone (we walk in a circle, holding hands and hugging each other) Educator: Guys, the kids asked you to make a salt dough for them to give them nesting dolls so that they can decorate them and then play with them. Now I suggest you make matryoshka dolls from salt dough (which I prepared in advance), and after sleep we will take the dolls to our little friends. While you are making nesting dolls, I will ask you to write poems about goodness and good deeds. And you can also tell these poems to the kids in the evening. Child: All people need kindness, Let there be more kind ones. It’s not for nothing that they say “Good afternoon” and “Good evening” when meeting. And it’s not for nothing that we have the “Good Hour” wish. Kindness is the adornment of a person from time to time... Child: It is not at all easy to be kind, Kindness does not depend on growth. Kindness does not depend on color, Kindness is not a gingerbread, not a candy. If kindness shines like the sun, adults and children rejoice. Child: I want everyone to laugh, so that dreams always come true, so that children have joyful dreams. So that the morning is good, So that mom doesn’t be sad, So that there is no more war in the world. Child: - Good afternoon! - they told you, - Good afternoon! - you answered. How two strings connected Warmth and kindness.

Educator: What wonderful dolls the nesting dolls turned out to be, you did a great job, you deserved the treat. Let's leave our nesting dolls, let them dry, and we'll go to the site and do good deeds there and breathe some air.

Educator: Please note that in the locker rooms we have an exhibition of your works on the topic - goodness. Well done to everyone, they did a wonderful job, and everyone contributed a piece of their kindness to our group. Educator: And in the afternoon I suggest you decorate our “Tree of Goodness”.

Parables about kindness

For centuries, people have written wonderful tales and given birth to parables about kindness. They perfectly demonstrate the essence of kindness. For example, this video, which has spread around the Internet many, many times, speaks very eloquently and subtly about this:

Here is another instructive story about the importance of the silence of good deeds...

One day, the students came to the mentor and asked him: “Why do bad inclinations easily take hold of a person, but good inclinations take hold of a person with difficulty and remain fragile in him?”
- What happens if a healthy seed is left in the sun and a sick one is buried in the ground? - asked the old man.
“A good seed that is left without soil will die, but a bad seed will germinate and produce a sick sprout and bad fruit,” answered the students.
“This is what people do: instead of secretly doing good deeds and growing good seedlings deep in their souls, they put them on display and thereby ruin them.
And people hide their shortcomings and sins deep in their souls so that others do not see them. There they grow and wound a person to the very heart.
You, be wise and don’t do this!
